I wanted to check out what you've done but I'm not seeing your album?
I'm relatively new here, and haven't created an album yet. Just try the link, you'll see my truck, and a couple other members trucks, along with a few other suggestions.

If (and only if) you were thinking about blacking out the running boards, I'd Line-X them. You'd get the look along with better traction so you don't wipe out when there's snow/sleet.

I've seen that done and it looks really good! One guy did his grill centers and boost bar in lineX too and it looked amazing. And ya, some traction would be nice. When wet these things are about useless!

I saw your truck pics, and it looks good, but you've done so much in your sig that I wanted to see how it looks now!

To me it's confused with black, chrome and ptm stuff. If you had the OEM chrome projectors I would say leave it alone but with those black heads the chrome needs to go. I think the grille bars should be black and then ptm the bumpers. As for the wheels I think they would look good with the center part black and the lip ptm.

Your truck looks real good as is. Nice job. The chrome bits on the truck all work well together.

Right!? That's how I feel about it for the most part.... like what am I going for?
I appreciate the honest feedback.
